Revise the passage by changing all of the gerunds to infinitives and all of the infinitives to gerunds.
AnnZ [28]

On the one hand, a <u>gerund</u> is a verb that acts as a noun, know for the -ing form. On the other hand, an <u>infinitive</u> is the basic form of a verb, that usually follows  "to" or another verb form.  The revised sentence, including both of these, is:

"To give is one of the best things people can do. Volunteering their time shows what caring people they are."

Arte-miy333 [17]
